Question for the Lehman crew about mods for the C50. I've been told by several people that I can't trailer anything with this trike - not enough "umph" in the 800cc, and the trike kit isn't able to handle a trailer hitch.

I'm not a mechanic, so I can't be sure how accurate the statement is about the engine handling it, but I ride one-up 100% of the time so I can't believe it couldn't handle something small.

That said, I guess all that remains then is the question about the kit handling a hitch. Even if it's just to add one of those racks to the back, rather than towing something.

Can that be done with the Tramp kit?

Thanks for your help!! :)
 
Due to the way the body is attached to the motorcycle frame, there is no structure to support a trailer hitch. Mounting a hitch to the body will eventually destroy the body. These models (Tramp & Raider) were never designed for the use of a hitch.
